If you’re using Calibre to manage your books, it’ll also automatically prompt you about whether you want to install new firmware updates or not—and it will install them for you if you say yes. It’s probably best to keep wifi off, since with it on you’ll be forced into new firmware updates without a chance to opt out (unless you’ve patched your firmware to avoid that).

But if you want to use Kobo’s ecosystem, you will probably want wifi.
